egcs-971114 versus egcs-971023

[Andrey Slepuhin]

Hi,
I found significant improvements in egcs-971114 compared to egcs-971023 on
AIX4.2. Compiling 523Kb C++ file I obtain object file with a size 4.7Mb
instead of 4.9Mb, and compiler memory usage of 53Mb SIZE/42Mb RES
instead of 65Mb SIZE/46Mb RES. Moreover, trying to compile 680Kb C++ file
(indeed, this file is an output of IDL compiler) under egcs-971023 I got many
assembler errors like the following:
/tmp/cco.lUMa.s: line 487268: The displacement must be greater than or equal to
        -32768 and less than or equal to 32767.
Under egcs-971114 it compiles fine giving 3.6Mb object and 78Mb SIZE/43Mb RES
compiler memory usage.
